Brandon Bussi was waived by the Bruins and cleared, allowing him to report to the AHL's Providence Bruins.

Brandon Bussi is currently in a position where he may be waived or sent to the AHL's Providence Bruins, which would impact the Bruins' salary cap situation. If he is sent down, the team would gain an additional $1.16 million in cap space, but he would need to pass through waivers first. His status is part of the Bruins' broader roster decisions as they finalize their lineup ahead of the season.

Brandon Bussi has been impressive in his role as a goaltender for the Providence Bruins, boasting a .917 save percentage over the last two seasons.

Bussi will have the opportunity to showcase his skills during camp and the preseason to potentially secure a spot on the Opening Night roster.
